    I have determined that the damage to the lands associated with 
the Wrangell Cooperative Association resulting from a severe storm, 
landslides, and mudslides on November 20, 2023, is of sufficient 
severity and magnitude to warrant a major disaster declaration under

that such a major disaster exists for the Wrangell Cooperative

authorized to allocate from funds available for these purposes such 
amounts as you find necessary for Federal disaster assistance and

Mitigation, and Other Needs Assistance under section 408 will be 
limited to 75 percent of the total eligible costs.
    Further, you are authorized to make changes to this declaration 
for the approved assistance to the extent allowable under the 
Stafford Act.
